3/ House Republicans are investigating an FBI lawyer’s contacts with the reporter that broke the dossier story.

Several journalists, experts and pundits have pushed back on this story (see threads here, here, here, here, here and here). since it’s misleading and is an attempt to discredit the Mueller investigation by the GOP. David Corn makes it perfectly clear James Baker is not his source. In addition, it was known almost a year ago at this point that David Corn spoke to Steele directly (via Skype) prior to his first story running on 10/31/16.
